Depends on who you ask. I like the SV better myself - there are some center of gravity differences and I found the pegs on the Gladius to be awkward for me (though others have said something different). The SV has a lot of aftermarket support as well, though the Gladius is getting there

Don't rule out some other bikes like the Honda 599 either - I found the one I rode very comfortable (though badly in need of a brake upgrade - SS lines and some different pads would probably make a difference there). I could corner that bike like it was on freaking rails.
